Signs - Buildings: #03/16 Sunny Days

The inscription roughly translates to ‘I count only the sunny hours’. Seen here on a sundial in Aldeburgh in 2019

After today’s picture, there will be a short poem l have write for this shot. 

Our photograph is a close-up view of a metal sundial, captured from a low angle so the central piece rises prominently from the surface. 

The sundial is made of weathered brass or bronze, its surface textured with age, faint scratches, and patches of darker patina that suggest many years outdoors.

At the center stands the gnomon, the triangular metal piece that casts the shadow telling the time. It leans upward at a steep angle, forming a slender triangle. 

Near its base is a round circular opening, like a small ring cut through the metal, which adds a delicate architectural detail to the otherwise solid structure. The edges of the gnomon catch warm golden light, making them glow against the cooler tones around it.

The sundial’s circular base plate is engraved with fine lines and markings that radiate outward like spokes of a wheel. These etched lines indicate the hours, forming a pattern that spreads across the metal surface.

Toward the lower edge of the dial, there are raised symbols and lettering, including a small emblem resembling a three-loop knot. The metal surface reflects subtle highlights, while tiny droplets or marks of moisture glisten in the grooves.

The background is softly blurred, colored in cool blues and muted greys. Shapes of what appear to be a bench and a stone wall sit out of focus.

The overall feeling is contemplative: a quiet instrument designed to measure the passing of daylight, standing still while time moves around it.

Finally, our picture is finished with a simple white border frame, and now for my poem. 

I call it…Time and Hope

The sun moves slowly,
yet the dial stands still,
a patient witness
to the turning of the day.

Shadows stretch and fade,
hours slipping like water,
but every new morning
returns with light.

So time may wander
beyond our grasp,
yet hope, like the sun
always finds its way back.

A soda can with a CD above it, under sunlight. The can is wrapped with a white sheet of paper with labeled hour lines on it. The shadow on the can and the CD's shadow intersect at hour line '9', indicating the solar time.

Gentle reminder: an old 12cm CD and a slim soda can make an elegant portable #sundial.
On this sundial the noon hour line must face west.

Sundial

This one I made after the release of the album of the same name by Noname back in 2023.

These two buildings are exactly alike. The reason they are built so close to each other is because they are a part of the sun dial keeping track of time. There is a pointer right below with a big concrete pad with lines and dates on them. #sundial #architecture #barcelona #photography

A hanging, gold sundial with sunny going through it. The Green arrow points to adopt where the sun is shining. The background is a maroon color fabric.

Apparently, International Village mall has a #sundial on its roof?

There's 0 info I could find about it. Would be a cool #urbex destination.
